PRPnet rally Apr. 18th-25th

gd_barnes · 2012-04-03, 22:25

Hi everyone,

It's time to have another rally. It will begin Wed, Apr. 18 at 7 PM GMT and finish 168 hours later on Wed., Apr. 25 at 7 PM GMT. That is 3 PM EDT and 2 PM CDT in the U.S.

Like last time, the rally will be focusing on our 14th drive, that is k=600-1001 for n>1M, in order that the range can continue to play "catch up" with our 13th drive. That means PRPnet port 2000, which should be in the vicinity of n=1.12M-1.15M during the rally. A prime at that level should come in around 1000th-1500th place in the top-5000 list.

Although Lennart and PrimeSearchTeam continued their dominance in the last rally, there were many interesting battles for 2nd, 3rd, and 4th place, both in the individual and team races. Let's see if we can make this one just as interesting.

PRPnet config info.:
server = "www.noprimeleftbehind.net"
port = 2000

Or, in terms of a prpclient.ini config line:
server=G2000:100:1:noprimeleftbehind.net:2000

Be sure and change your userID to whatever ID you prefer. Most people use their ID here at mersenneforum. It is also best to set the cache to something in the vicinity of 2 to 10 pairs.

Info. for downloading the newest PRPnet client can be found at PRPnet. Rally stats can be found at rally stats.

Everyone...don't forget...rally starts in about 1-1/2 days.

I've posted the announcement at PrimeGrid just now--its belatedness is entirely my fault, I apologize without excuse.

Someone mentioned to me last time that my PrimeGrid rally announcements have tended to be rather over-verbose (they kept getting bigger with each successive rally) so I cut it down quite a bit this time--hopefully the most important information will be front and center.

I've also cross-posted the announcement from this thread to the Free-DC and AMD Users forums.

Question:
Is there any advantage to upgrading the PRPclient to the latest version?

I have previously run version 4.3.7 for Windows on NPLB and version 5.0.5 for Windows for PrimeGrid.

gd_barnes · 2012-04-18, 21:45

The rally started a little under 3 hours ago. Good luck everyone!

First time doing one of the NPLB rallies (I am usually doing PrimeGrid PRPnet stuff), and I am curious why my team name is not showing up? I only added the NPLB port to already working PRPnet installs with the team name specified (as it is for PrimeGrid). Am I missing something?

Just tell them here the team you like to use :)

We are on track to beat the snot out of the previous rally.
